The wounds cut too deep My heart; too easily leaps This ******** is tearing me apart Time to sell my already sold heart I grab my iron words My flightless birds This steel mask Is filled with stronger poison than any flask This natural high Makes me feel alive Why do they care Stop me, they dare No more crying No more lying I will rise again Merciful heart for a murderers brain

It is now the ending Goodbye to our tale Where the story's sad When love was just what we had I take back the reality Where I don't know you Cause in that dimension We lack vitality

though the past may live in me, I can clearly see what's now meant to be s.q.

Haiku
Is it just me, or do you ever look at yourself in the mirror and pull at pieces of skin you wish weren’t there? do you claw at the marked up places, or beat the aching bones? do you ever just look at someone else, and take in their completion, wishing that you were them, facing a mirror? dozens of loose ends, and with a curvy smile, you're forced to tell yourself you're willing to wait for a confidence more valuable than any tear shed. why are we expected to work 100x harder than them? I know no one is the same, but what determines how were different? why do I always want something I don’t have, and push away everything I do? who in this world  even came up with the definition of beauty? as if life is only permissible to those who have things figured out throughly. truly that’s just unfair to make someone who’s flaws aren’t accepted, follow a path that is redirected in a circle that is infected with a never ending journey of hatred towards themselves. collecting baggage from the world that sticks like dust on the highest shelf of a book case filled with books of truth, rarely read. all they ever had to do was open one up and realize that to their surprise they are more than what they’ve been memorized with all these years. they're somethings beyond the humans eyes of beauty, and all it really took to see that was a key to a loose lock. just one knock will do. open the door, and find out more of your true self. find out the truth about the remarkable beauty you hold within. (j.a.r.)

As above, so below. As within, so without. A turning toward peace. A human heart flaming as a torch. Being led by you through unfamiliar climes, we journey blindly on the road to Damascus. This pain long buried by grace and courage flowering into radical acceptance.

Peripeteia
up, down down, up you turn around your life your life turns around you leaving you with riddles seldom with a clue *"What is life's purpose?" "What shall I do now?" "Should I end it here?"* struggling with ourselves misfortune as chance arising from ourselves endless possibilities emerge your path in life still blocked time to change yourself *"This pain shall fade, please." "I'm sorry I did it, I never wanted to hurt you." "Please, I wish to atone for my sins."* every moment in life gives you a possibility to change repairing yourself, repairing your faults creating something new reaching out of the void the emptiness within you
